CAIRO, July 13 (AP): Libyan forces has set conditions for lifting blockade on oil production.

Forces loyal to a Libyan commander said they will only allow the reopening of oil fields and terminals once a mechanism has been set up to fairly distribute revenue across the country, which is split between rival, warring factions.

Powerful tribes in eastern Libya loyal to Khalifa Hafter closed export terminals and choked off major pipelines at the start of the year.
